Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-7966: ----------------------------------- Assignee: (was: Apache Spark) > add Spreading Activation algorithm to GraphX > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-7966 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-7966 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: GraphX > Reporter: Tarek Auel > Priority: Minor > > I'm wondering if you would like to add the Spreading Activation algorithm to > GraphX. I have implemented it, using the Pregel-API and would love to share > it with the community. > Spreading activation is a algorithm that was invented to search in > associative networks. The basic idea is, that you have one (or multiple) > starting nodes. The activation spreads out from these nodes to the neighbours > and the neighbours of the neighbours. The activation decreases after every > hop. Nodes that were reached by many activations will have a higher total > activation level. > Spreading Activation is for many use cases useful. Imagine you have the > social network of two people. If you apply the spreading activation to this > social graph with the two people as starting nodes, you will get the nodes > that are most important for both. > Some resources: > http://www.websci11.org/fileadmin/websci/posters/105_paper.pdf > https://webfiles.uci.edu/eloftus/CollinsLoftus_PsychReview_75.pdf?uniq=20ou4w -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
